A cloud engineer is reviewing a disaster recovery plan that includes the following requirements:
· System state, files, and configurations must be backed up on a weekly basis. · The system state, file, and configuration backups must be tested annually.
Which of the following backup methods should the engineer implement for the first week the plan is executed?
- Differential
- Incremental
- Snapshot
- Full
Answer(s): D
Explanation:
A full backup method should be implemented for the first week the disaster recovery plan is executed. This will ensure that a complete copy of the system state, files, and configurations are backed up. Subsequent backups can be differential or incremental as per the plan.
Reference:
Backup methodologies, including the importance of full backups, are part of the data management strategies in cloud computing covered in the CompTIA Cloud+ certification.
